Do you love database patching? No?
Database patching is a reoccurring task. Every quarter in January, April, July and October it is time to apply at least the quarterly bundle patches.

But even finding the right patches can be a challenge sometimes. And WHY is YOUR patch not available? Do you need a new opatch? And what if you unplug from 19.6.0 to 19.9.0 – do you have to copy around files and run any tool?

I know, patching can be painful and a pretty nasty task.

The idea of this talk is to relief some of the pain. Patching doesn’t have to be complicated. Patching can be automated, at least partially. And you can decrease the downtime for your database, even without a RAC system.

This and much more will be the topic – and patching won’t be a jungle anymore.
